    Appears to be as advertised...good buy....uncertain as to efficacy since unclear whether it is effective at "sanitizing" ... duration of sanitizing process seems a bit brief.

    Short sanitation time.

    I bought two units during one day sale then found it’s really not practical with two problems: 1. The unit is really bulky but can only accommodate small items like cell phones or eye-glasses, plus plastic film inside is really flimsy that I doubt if it’ll hold up the long-term carriage. 2. The sanitation time is really short, less than one minute, which is much less than most other competitors on the market. I don’t even brother opening the 2nd unit But just returned both. Not recommend.

    Cavity size is ample. What took me back was things I read on website about the bulbs having to possibly be replaced after 4 months or so along with the cradle (sold as a package at a cost of around $50). The brush that you can force objects through to "clean" off dust seems pointless for things like masks and phones. Although it says it good for killing multiple types of germs, Covid-19 has not been tested and when I contacted the manufacturer, I never received a reply. May be returning this, as I have an ionizer that does just as much, if not more at a cost of $100.

    I think it works- and I liked having it but stopped working less than a year after getting it. Called pure light and they said to go through Best Buy- who of course wouldn’t help me because I didn’t buy the extended warranty. The company wanted to sell me bulbs for $50. I assume that’s the problem but don’t know that. Decided to trash it instead

    Seems to work great and is large enough to fit masks. No way to tell IF it works though. Great deal on daily special.

    I really like this. It is quick and easy. I put my phone, keys, facemasks, credit cards, money, etc. in here. Gives me a little piece of mind.

    THIS ITEM IS VERY GOOD. THE ONE CHANGE I WOULD SUGGEST IS MAKING THE INNER COMPARTMENT MORE STURDY.

    Bulbs die quickly, replacement cost is a rip-off.

    Expensive bulb replacement kills it. Before Covid-19, they sold the bulb replacement kit for $30. Now it's $50. My original bulbs lasted less than a year at 2-3 uses per week, far from the 10,000 hours they're supposedly guaranteed for.
